Scanning near-field optical microscope with spectrometer and oscilloscope, used for imaging, topography, space-resolved luminescence measurements, evanescent light measurements. The instrument is versatile and can be integrated with different light sources, filters, sensors, acquisition systems.
Functions:
- confocal microscope
- SNOM (present resolution: 60, 90 and 150 nm)
- AFM
- can be adapted for Raman spectroscopy, but the recommended tool for Raman is the Micro-Raman in F13
Light sources:
- green laser (532 nm)
- purple laser (403 nm)
Collection modes:
- reflection
- transmission
